Wasteland 2 Available via Steam Early Access

Posted: 14 Dec 2013 10:28 PM PST

Go back to the irradiated world of Wasteland

Looking for something distinctly more Fallout than zombie-slaying for your PC game repertoire? You might want to take on Wasteland 2, the delectable-looking squel to Wasteland, whose beta was just made available for Kickstarter backers as of yesterday. As far as the rest of us go, there's always Steam Early Access, which the game has gone live on as well.

You'll have to put down $59.99 of course, and that's definitely a little steep for Early Access. However, as PC Gamer explains, you're effectively paying for the first Kickstarter tier to access the beta. You'll also be given a few "bonuses" over the course of the game's launch, so that sweetens the deal as well.

Let us know what you think if you take the plunge!

Google Looking to Design Proprietary ARM Chips

Posted: 14 Dec 2013 09:15 PM PST

A mammoth undertaking for Google

Google and Intel have been sharing similar strategies for a while now, though that might be getting ready to be taken to the next level. Reports from Bloomberg indicate that Google is considering constructing their own ARM-based servers.

Google opening up the floor to their own ARM chips does require some serious consideration on their part, even if it would mean putting them into direct competition with Intel. Like ExtremeTech projects, this wouldn't be a project Google would simply tackle without some sort of meticulously-detailed plan in place.

Do you think Google will go ahead with the plan, or do you think they're barking up the wrong tree?
